Questions:
Anybody has experience with Museum of Contemporary art and/or National Museum of Modern Art?
Is Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden and Omiya Hachiman Shrine too much in 1 go?
There is still some space on day 3, any suggust for a food court of district to walk around?
Since Kyoto is such a hotspot for tourist, is my order of itinerary OK?
Or can I change things to avoid the peak times?
